1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Objective: To compare the magnitude of subsidence between single- (SW) and double-wedge (DW) femoral stems in primary total hip arthroplasties (THAs), and to identify factors associated with clinically relevant subsidence. Methods: Retrospective cohort study with 82 patients (164 hips) undergoing bilateral THA between 2012 and 2022, each receiving type-I (Corail) and -II (Summit) stems, both manufactured by DePuy Synthes. Subsidence was measured radiographically up to 6 months postoperatively and was considered clinically relevant when greater than 3 mm. Radiographic variables included cortical enlargement index (CEI) and canal fill rate (CFR). Statistical analyses included paired t-test, logistic regression, and Spearman correlation. Results: The mean subsidence was 1.93 ± 1.16 mm in type-I stems and 2.23 ± 1.57 mm in type-II ( Conclusion: The DW stems were associated with a higher risk of clinically relevant subsidence. In bilateral THA, subsidence is more pronounced at first surgery, with no detectable influence of demographic or radiographic factors.
